Websocket server/service

“A WebSocket server also communicates with another service called message service”

Should this be as below?
“Websocket manager also communicates with another service called message service”

Hi Sandeep Sankranti,

Thanks for your feedback.

The WebSocket manager stores the mapping between servers, ports, and users. It resides on top of a cluster of the data store. However, the communication between different clients and services occurs via the WebSocket server. Involving the WebSocket manager in communication will become a bottleneck as it already serves its purpose of storing the map table. Therefore, it is the WebSocket server that communicates with the message service.

I hope this clarifies the concept.

Thank you.
Happy learning!

Hi,

the provided answer is still confusing to me. In the text it’s still being said: “A WebSocket server also communicates with another service called message service.” However, based on the provided pictures, it’s only the WebSocket manager that communicates with Message Service.
